Director Lokesh Kanagaraj released the first look and title of actor-director Prabhudeva’s upcoming film Musasi on Thursday. Prabhudeva will play the role of a Deputy Commissioner of Police in the film.

“The film is an action thriller that portrays the challenging life of an IPS officer," says Sam Rodrigues, who is making his directorial debut with the film. He says that the story is based on a few real events that occurred recently.

 “Musasi is a Japanese warrior, who is known for his swordsmanship. In the movie, Prabhudeva’s character, too, faces a lot of battles and emerges successfully from it like Musasi. So we believed that it would be the apt title for the movie,” said Sam Rodrigues to a media portal.

“Musasi is a proper cop story that doesn’t have any masala elements in it. It will be high on action sequences. The story too revolves around modern-day issues and crimes and how the DCP of a particular jurisdiction in Chennai solves them,” he added

Sam also clarified that Prabhudeva doesn’t have a romantic interest in the film. “Instead there are three villains. He isn’t your regular police. We have worked a lot on emotional angles as well as Prabhudeva’s looks. It has come out well,” Sam divulged.

Talking about the shooting schedules, Sam said, “We completed the first schedule in Chennai and the second schedule is taking place in forests near Kodaikanal. The shoot is almost complete.”

Now they are shooting the next schedule of the film, which is set partly in Chennai and also along the Kodaikanal-Kerala border. The film's supporting cast includes VTV Ganesh, John Vijay, Aruldoss, Udhayabhanu Maheswaran, Binu Pappu, and others.
